At Custom Blinds & Designs, we can tell you all about the home choices for operating motorized shades in Lincoln, NE. Come see us to find the perfect shades and system for your home.

PowerView® Motorization

PowerView® Motorization is a revolutionary operating system that allows you to control your window treatments with either the push of a button or your voice. Using the Pebble® Remote, which is available in 10 stylish colors, you can control each window treatment individually or up to six at once. The Pebble® Remote can also be mounted on the wall like a switch.

Using your smartphone or tablet, you can download the PowerView® app and adjust your window treatments from anywhere in the world as long as you have an internet connection. The app gives you the ability to both control your motorized shades at-will, or you can schedule them to operate on their own, so you never have to give them a second thought. Your shades can adjust automatically based on several factors including outside temperature and time of day.

Finally, PowerView® Motorization can be integrated with your whole-home automation system, like the ones offered by Google and Amazon, so you can control your window treatments using your voice. For today’s busy adult, hands-free technology really is the ultimate convenience.

There are quite a few safety benefits to PowerView® Motorization as well. For starters, this system makes your window treatments cordless, so you won’t have to worry about them harming your children or pets. Additionally, having your window treatments adjust automatically can make your home appear as if it is always occupied, deterring would-be intruders.

SoftTouch™ Motorization

SoftTouch™ Motorization is a battery-powered operating system that uses a want to control your window treatments. It’s very simple to use; all you have to do is push up on the wand to raise your shades and pull down on it to lower them. You can even push or pull the wand and then walk away. Because there are no cords, this system adds extra pet and child-safety to your home. Additionally, you can set favorite shade positions, so you can easily get the right level of light and privacy in your home.
